Kirstie Alley has vowed to battle the bulge to give her Oscar hopes a fighting chance.

The former Cheers beauty revealed her lifetime goal is to win an Academy Award during the premiere of her new reality TV show Kirstie Alley’s Big Life on Sunday night.

But in order to land Oscar-worthy movie roles, the 59-year-old mum-of-two believes she must first drop down from 16st to a slender 9st 7lbs.

“Life is made up of decisions all lined up like 10 little soldiers beckoning us to decide,” she said.

“Now I’m forced to decide between getting fit and going for an Oscar – my life’s dream – and staying fat and being known for keeping cats and lemurs.”

In her mission, she has enlisted the help of her own handyman Jim, who will be her workout buddy, as well as hunky personal trainer JR, whom she hired after ogling his six-pack online.

The A&E series also features Kirstie’s two children, William, 17, and 15-year-old Lillie, as well as her assistants, Kelly and Kyle.

After falling in love with a sexy white chiffon gown, the notorious yo-yo dieter promised herself she’d fit into it by New Year’s Eve.

Gazing at the floaty, jewelled dress presented by her stylist, she said: “This inspires me for real. I can’t believe I f*****g got f*****g fat again.”

The singer seems to be highly unhappy with the way she looks right now… or at least this is what one might believe from her recent complaints. This is what Lily Allen said on the matter: “In the mirror I see someone who is more overweight than they actually are.” Lily Allen seems to speak as if she sees someone totally different in the mirror… which should present a much more difficult problem than being overweight. Seeing other people in the mirror… that could be considered quite scary, but it’s no sweat for Lily Allen, this probably happens all the time.

Kim Kardashian has said she is at a “healthy weight” after getting in shape using weight-loss product QuickTrim.

The 28-year-old recently posted a picture of herself on her blog after using the product, which she and sister Khloe endorse, and showed off her bikini body.

She said: “I really feel like I have reached my fitness goal and now I am toned, fit and at a healthy weight. I just need to keep it up!”

On Thanksgiving, Kim recently tweeted that she was looking forward to sweet potato souffle, fried chicken, turkey, dressing and cranberry sauce.

But she said that she was going to hit the treadmill and work off the pounds while the food is in the oven.

She said: “No excuse for getting lazy during the holidays.”

TV star Mischa Barton was spotted complaining about having to do a gym session – while munching on McDonald’s fast-food meal.

The British actress is being forced through a fitness regime to play a model in new US show The Beautiful Life.

But she appears to be anything but keen on the fitness experience judging by a recent sighting of her outside a gym in New York’s Soho.

“She had a bag of McDonald’s in hand and was complaining to someone who looked like a trainer,” an onlooker told Page Six.

“She was pleading, ‘Do I have to?’”

The actress who is reputedly a vegetarian has been having very carnivorous cravings since getting pregnant with her first child. Alyson Hannigan spoke about her new appetites: “I basically went from being a vegan to eating meat and cheese – and ginger ale! Ginger ale, I love. Apparently, my mom craved ginger ale when she was pregnant with me! Maybe it’s a hereditary thing. I didn’t eat any meat or cheese before – now I have to.” Well of course she has to, the little infant must feed so that it can grow strong and devour the flesh of other mammals… or at least so it was a few millennia ago. But you have to notice a little irony here: Alyson Hannigan was the star of “Buffy, vampire slayer”. All the fighting of blood sucking vermin must have determined her to become a vegetarian.
